Here we are in the third week of the strike, and we can truly start to see the effect it is having on things. Word has it that Saturday Night Live has fired its staff. Many television studios are now dark, and two motion pictures have decided to not go forward at this time on their productions. The good news is the writers will be going for talks on the 26th. That is a week from today. Hopefully, they will have some holiday cheer and we can see an end to this strike sometime next week. I've been stock piling my television show episodes to keep me company if things go longer than now. That and a lot of new DVD's I've been picking up lately. Need to have something to watch, don't we?
